Palace Stein

AITOOW thinks the reason the Palestinians won't sign a peace treaty is that they know they can't govern successfully once they do? No one else to blame then.

Family Lies

AITOOW notices that people who are paid outrageous sums of money always try and justify it by saying it is for "me and my family"? How much of that largesse actually filters down to them do you think?

Layoffs and Playoffs

AITOOW is sick of the difference in regular season and playoff effort in sports? Especially football and basketball. It's like the regular season is pro-am. You can see the difference in effort. It's night and day. Nor subtle. The speed. The concentration. The contact (on non white players). The actual participation and Lazurus rises from the dead (or injured list). And it doesn't help that the renumeration they get is astronomical and you know there are passive aggressive racial undertones to it. Or they are just plain lazy like the stereotype asserts.

Black Letter of the Lost

AITOOW remembers that the fear was that in the new millennium everything and everybody was only going to be ironic? It seems that that fear was misplaced. Everyone and everything is literal. There is no irony or sarcasm or tone. Everything is just as if it were texted. Unless you can uncover some hidden bias of course.

Black Marks

AITOOW thinks black made movies are given an extra star by reviewers?

Pit-i-bull

AITOOW wonders why they don't play the music they are dancing to in that Pit Bull Boost Mobile commercial? Was it too "ethnic" for their executives? Did it cost more to use it? Make no mistake, I'm glad we aren't subjected to the vulgarity. I would just like to laugh at the back story. It's so unlike modern business thinking. And who remembers that recent commercial with a Stephen Hawking mini me playing a video game? Was that pathetic or what?

Empty-thy

AITOOW thinks old people aren't empathetic/sympathetic? They don't become more understanding and openminded with age. They just can't win a dispute any longer. They have neither the energy nor the physical power to mix it up. They must take the side of the weak. It's them.

Baby Talk

AITOOW wonders if we hear so much pigeon English because we try and be understood by "simplifying" our speech when we interact overseas? They just mimic what they hear.

Green(back) Revolution

AITOOW thinks countries that promote clean energy are just ones who have no "dirty" energy? They aren't altruistic.

Bone Slugs and Disharmony

AITOOW wonders why black athletes are such bitches? They are soooo hurt by being called names. Mr Sensitive. You are more pre-menstrual than a Vassar freshman women studies major. And btw, the monikers are usually accurate and you just can't acknowledge it. Thugs? Yes it's the identity you promote on a daily basis. And most of you aren't just posturing. Jimmy Butler aside. You are actual thugs who moonlight as minimal effort athletes (and entertainers). If you are truly not thugs then explain to me how you would respond to me if I called you the bitch (or worse) you are. Thought so.

Sticking It To Us

AITOOW is not impressed by hotels reducing their plastic use? It's just another instance of them being enabled to cut costs by pretending to be ethical.

Grace Over Race

AITOOW was glad to see so few "representation" awards at the Golden Globes? And by "representation" awards I mean dispersity participation awards.

The New WNBA

AITOOW wonders how long will it take for the NBA to become all white again? Three Pointers. No defense. Small players. Only systemic racism can hold it back.
